• The cable wire colours, or a letter, will be marked
at the connection points of most good quality
plugs. Attach the wires to their respective points
in the plug (see below). Brown is for Live (L) (2)
and Blue is for Neutral (N) (4).
• Before replacing the top cover of the mains plug
ensure that the cable restraint (3) is holding the
outer sheath of the cable firmly and that the two
leads are correctly fixed at the terminal screws.
Never use a light socket.
Never connect the live (L) or neutral (N)
wires to the earth pin marked E or
For 115 V units with a power rating exceeding 1500 W,
we recommend to fit a plug to BS4343 standard.

Assembly and adjustment
Prior to assembly and adjustment always
unplug the tool.
Inserting and removing a cutter (fig. B)
• Press and hold down the spindle lock (2).
• Using the 17 mm wrench, loosen the collet nut (3)
a few turns and insert a cutter.
• Tighten the collet nut and release the spindle lock.
Never tighten the collet nut without a
cutter in the collet.
Replacing the collet assembly (fig. C)
Your router is supplied with a 8 mm (GB: 1/4") collet
fitted to the tool. Two other precision collets are also
available to suit the cutter used. The collet and the
collet nut are inseparable.
• Loosen the collet nut (3) completely.
• Remove the collet assembly (21).
• Fit a new assembly and tighten the collet nut (3).

using the electronic speed control dial
(19) for uniform cutting results in all types of wood,
plastics and in aluminium.
• Turn the electronic speed control dial to the
required level.
Generally, use the low setting for large diameter cutters
and the high setting for small diameter cutters.
The correct setting, however, is a matter of experience.
